We all have minor differences of beliefs about certain bible concepts (and that’s fine, we see as through a glass darkly for now on tough unclear biblical concepts where no direct answer for a topic is given)- but false religions ignore basic set in stone biblical concepts and mold God into their own image- The issue of homosexuality is one such major biblical issue that they ignore God on- Another is how to be saved- some think we have to earn it- but that isn’t biblical- infact it specifically states that we can’t- but some ignore that or try to explain that the bible doesn’t really mean that we can’t work for our salvation- (There is a verse “Work out your own salvation” which trips folks up- but the verse isn’t talking about ‘Working FOR salvation’ but rather working OUT our salvation once we are saved- )

1. I did not mention homosexuality, however, since you did, my views are based on historical fact - not religion - they have never brought profit nor success to all the available records of every available civilization. Therefore, I believe “an open season” be xeclared, until they are no more. They bring misfortune, with their very lives, so “they do not get a break”.

2.As I read your answer, I think you are a Calvinist.
